Minimizes Unnecessary Mathematical Complexity

One of the key decisions that must be made by an author who is writing in the area of derivatives concerns the use of mathematics.  If the level of mathematical sophistication is too high, the material is likely to be inaccessible to many students and practitioners.  If it is too low, some important issues will inevitably be treated in a rather superficial way.

•    Nonessential mathematical material has been either eliminated or included in end-of-chapter appendices and the technical notes on my website.  
•    Concepts that are likely to be new to many readers have been explained carefully, and many numerical examples have been included.  

Software

Version 1.5101 of DerivaGem is included with this book. This consists of two Excel applications: the Options Calculator and the Applications Builder.

•    The Options Calculator - Consists of easy-to-use software for valuing a wide range of options.

•    The Applications Builder - consists of a number of Excel functions from which users can build their own applications. It includes a number of sample applications and enables students to explore the properties of options and numerical procedures more easily. It also allows more interesting assignments to be designed.
